Everyone has different ideas. Youre not entitled to dictate what i should do with my car. You have yours and i have mine. Lets leave it at that.

The neons are just to balance and flesh out the paintjob and this aint the first classic car/cars to get neon treatment. Many have done so and it looks nice.

 

 

I didn't dictate, I point out that you had no class and no taste. I stand by it. You're free to continue with this approach, but it will appear crass to most observers.

How did you slam it? I tried shooting out the suspension and it goes boom before one wheel drops.

You have a different taste than him - period! It's not about having no class or taste. It's called personal preference. Just accept that fact and move on.

Pot calling the kettle black there?

 

You can say that for yourself but you dont speak for others. Its your own opinion not a fact.

Think about it. If this was in real life, do you think people would appreciate what you did to it or avert their eyes?

I saw someone do a similar thing to a Jaguar XJS and I felt like throttling the guy.

What you want to do, is turn the armor all the way up... But whatever you do, DO NOT add bulletproof tires. One clip per wheel (in the center of the hub) with the Marksman Rifle on all four corners, will do the trick! ;) ...Have fun! :)

It actually looks quite nice this way. Just lose the neon lights and you're golden in my opinion.

 

And I can't believe myself praising an over-the-top Sports Classic paint scheme.

Ok fair enough on the neons. But i dont really think the paintjob is that gaudy.

My best advice to you: Customize your vehicles the way YOU like it, and not the way you think other people like it.

I think I will lose the tape on the headlights, I'm not sure about it. I love to race this car, so who knows - I may keep it.

 

Colour scheme derived from this model my dad had when I was growing up:

For me this is the most difficult car to choose a wheel that I like the result. Don't want to end up again with 'Superfin' as I already use them on Manana and Pigalle.

I love your car colour combanation. Mixed colours go well. Also, black goes with everything. :^::^::^:

Have you read page 15? There are a lot of good examples in my opinion.

I definitely think the best Chrome Spooner,or even Fairlie...although the latter is already on my Classic Coquette.

Drove the Stirling for the first time today and I have to say it is a great car. It's fun and responsive but has enough twitchiness to keep it interesting. I just hate the look of the "spoiler" spare tire. Any advice on keeping this pocket rocket in control?

Yep!

 

Spare tyre spoiler.

(Just learn to live with it if you're racing)

Decided to start rocking the fog lights on one of mine after I found out they have an amber glow.

Yeah I actually found out that the problem for me is chrome. Settled with black paint on El Jefe, Old School or Drag SPL and i'm satisfied.

I used the stock rims, but the El Jefe are practically identical if you want to add colour. They actually look pretty close to the wheels worn by 300 SL rally racers, except without the knockoffs.

I can't quite decide if I want to stick with the rally car look or not. I left off the taped headlights (they work better on my Warrener, I think) but I do have the roll cage and rally lamps (the more demure 2-pack, not the quasi-insane 4 piece), as well as the spare tire on the trunk. I just don't know though - the cleaner, classic look is great too. I might have to just keep changing it back and forth every couple days.

 

Definitely my favorite car in GTA V now. I just love it.

I want to buy it just because it's called Stirling.

I'm currently at 159.000, it's gonna be long road to it. But as soon as I get it, I'll post pics.

Great car, just great, and the sound it makes. Hooboy!

I agree completely, but it's just a shame, that R* didn't give it a more interesting cockpit. It should be something like the Stinger GT's.

Spare wheel looks fine, especially with a rally look.
